B10:35
I stand on the platform.
Aku berdiri di peron.
The train arrives with a heavy sound.
Kereta datang dengan suara berat.
My mother holds my hand tightly.
Ibuku memegang tanganku erat.
She smiles but her eyes are wet.
Dia tersenyum tapi matanya basah.
I want to stay but I must go.
Aku ingin tinggal tapi harus pergi.
The door opens and people get off.
Pintu terbuka dan orang turun.
I step inside and find a seat.
Aku masuk dan mencari tempat duduk.
Through the window I see her wave.
Lewat jendela kulihat dia melambai.
The train moves slowly at first.
Kereta bergerak pelan pada awalnya.
Then it picks up speed and she is gone.
Lalu melaju dan dia menghilang.
I press my hand against the cold glass.
Aku menempelkan tangan di kaca dingin.
The city fades into the grey afternoon.
Kota memudar ke sore yang kelabu.

Goodbye at the Station
